Ewan McGregor a 'visionary' at Sundance

Here are a few red carpet highlights from Sundance for you:

McGregor said, in a really lovely Scottish accent, it was "really nice" to be getting the award and that it's "really lovely" to be here. For fans on the lookout for him, he'll be here till Tuesday.

Plain White T's (that's a rock band) singer Tom Higgenson had this to say about the award during his appearance at a red carpet event prior to McGregor's arrival.

"You know what … what is the award for?" Higgenson said. "I don't even know."

That's OK. Next question. How about that Ewan McGregor?

"He's an amazing actor," Higgenson rebounded. "Ever since 'Trainspotting' I've loved the guy."

"I love Ewan," said fellow Scottish actor Alan Cumming. "I think he's a real darling."
